Some deals from Hobby Craft

So today me and my partner went to Northampton to go to Hobby Craft.

So we went round the store and I found some good deals. 

Project Life things were 20% off all products. I got myself the mini kit for Holidays. It was £14.99 and I got it for £11.24

I also got two sharpie pens which are ultra fine. I got the pastel purple and black. These were £1.50 each. 

I got five wooden stamps which are small but for Christmas. This was £2.50

I two acrylic blocks for stamping and they were in a pack which cost £3.00

Dear Lizzy date stamp which is £5.00

Pukka highlighter pack which is £1.50

I also joined the hobby craft club. 

I have just got a second hand Filofax, which doesn't start till the 18th December which is great as my birthday is 19th December. I have done some stamping with my new items for the week of Christmas, I will update more when I get into it in the new year. 

Loads of things but are XMAS!

Yes it is early but it's just round the corner now and that is CHRISTMAS 

I have ordered a few things like a planner from Paperchase just because I do have a filofax which is the Cancer one in the pocket size but never really used it but I wanted an A5 size because I love big planner/diary so I got myself a cheaper version of the Filofax. 

Which is this

This is Vintage London £22.00

Love the colours and it looks so cool and different from Filofax but have the same 6 rings as theirs. 

The only thing that I am not happy about is the fact the paper inside is 70lb and so my pens do bleed through the page. But they came with the planner and I will use them until I find one I like the look of or at the right price. 

My Cancer Pink Filofax I got in 2008 and I think it was £15 but it could of been in the sale the reason I like it was because it was small and it was good for my college work keeping it all together and then when I finished in 2008 I stop using it all together. So I ordered from ebay the pink sheets for 2015 to add into it and hopefully will start to use that as well to just keep in purse. I am not a pink person but it's for cancer and it's not a shocking pink either. 

The pen is from when I was in school and went through thing of loving playboy. It's a lovely writer but it's blue ink and I am a black ink person. It does have a pencil but I have some how broken the winding for the pencil and it's not working :( and it's all silver but I will keep it though as it does look pretty. 

I know I am not meant to use my big one now but I wanted to get it set up and use to it before the new year. So I have done my own dividers for both of these planners. 

I used the paper pad from New Bloom. I love these papers in this pack and just wanted to have them as my dividers I used mainly the double size paper and two one sided paper and that didn't laminate that well but I have still used it.  

Halloween

I am not into Halloween..... at all I do like looking at things but me I don't go out or anything..... 

But I did buy two Halloween sticker pages.

I do have a witches outfit for my teddy bear too which I will be printing out the photo for my La De Dah journal page. 

I go these from a pound shop in the UK so they were 50p each which I was thinking I couldn't go wrong with these for my scrapbooking/smashing page. 

The one of the ghosts are foiled stickers and they look amazing and love the purple in these too.

The teddy bear ones are prefect for the fact I have a witches outfit for my teddy. These are also 3D.

thanks for looking at my blog please follow :)

Update in the La De Dah Journal

So I thought my journal was the pretty one but infact it is the travel one.... which I don't mind.

I still use it to smash everything into for this year. I have added the extra pages pack into it too. 

I will say now I do have the INDIE version which is being wrapped up either for my birthday or Christmas just not sure which yet.

So this is all which I got there was another photo frame which I couldn't find but all of the La De Dah range were on ebay on the UK site 4 for 3 which is a good offer. I used this offer to because I knew I wanted to get the INDIE journal and wanted things to go with. I did fine the journal cheaper on amazon.co.uk to the ebay site. 

So here are some new pages in my Travel Journal which is of 2014.

So I have done a double spread for Lady Gaga tour which I went to see on Wednesday 15th October. In NIA Birmingham which was her first night in the UK. I have a normal blog post on this.

So what I done was print out the pictures I wanted in here with my Canon Sephly CP900 wifi. But the first picture which I printed came out bigger than I thought so I cut the three pictures out and used in the background in which I then printed the same picture out and put it with a boarder so it fitted. I thought it worked out really nicely. I used two pens one in purple and one in black to write out #artRAVE at the top of the page and wrote the tour. I got a 8 x 8 paper back which is Back To Basics in the colour one in which it is from Trimcraft too. I cut it so I could make it as a pocket so I could put more photos into.

These ones are of my grandad saying goodbye.... I wanted it simple and plain in which I used the coffee or tea page because when I used to live with him and my Gran they would always have a pot of Tea on all the time and tea was his favourite..... I miss Gran all the time in which she died back in 1997.

This is me trying to get Monty to stay still so I could get a lovely photo of him which wasn't good he moves all the time.

Anyone who knows me knows I am following the book into film of Fifty Shades Of Grey in which I love Jamie Dornan. 

I had to put a page for Disney Infinity because Neil and myself have got the new version of it 2.0 superheros. I am loving Thor and Neil is always Captain America.

Looking back of photos of me this year plus I added one of me as a baby.

This is of me getting my own channels on Youtube not fully updating all the time but I have three one is just one I watch mostly on but the other two are mine I upload with

1. Books - LilacBleedsBooks

2. Crafting - LilacBleeds

Loving my Denby set which I got on a clearance sale and the new The Sims 4

 loving my new watch from disney world.... and my favourite gorjuss girl.

Just done some pages in my La De Dah Journal 

And here they are:

I just used some photos from my stack from previous times which I have put into this journal. I love this journal and you don't have to be in order or what not. Just choose a page and off you go. It's so much like a smash book just you can add or remove pages and change the order around. I am loving this order at the moment but that can all change by Christmas.

I have also ordered for Christmas the La De Dah Indie Journal which is the purple one and as everyone should know that is me down to a tee. Love you Trimcraft!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New products

Hello everyone, 

welcome back I know it's been a while but I have been getting a few new products to collect to show you guys. I am still new in crafting and have been saving up for a holiday I am going on soon which is going to Florida... So does anyone have anywhere I need to check out while I am out there as in crafting. I have just recently got these.....

I need to still play around with these products. Plus I am starting Project Life too..... 

I will be doing an update video soon on my La De Dah journal and will do a quick look at my Project Life.

Just an update

Hello everyone,

Thanks for coming to have a look at this crafting section. I know I have updated in a while but loads of things have been happening.

I have been sent on a course for work and it's away from home.... But I am back and I have been doing some new layouts (not the best but simple and to what I like too) plus updated some of my La De Dah scrapbook too. 

Just before all of this I lost my Grandad on the 14th March which hit me a bit due to the fact I only saw him like 4 hours previews. Any who I am now back to crafting in my spare time.

I have got some new products which I am loving and I have just ordered a taster set off of ebay of the Project Life. I do need to get some page protectors but at least it is a start.

I don't know if I have said before now but I have a youtube channel for crafting its LilacBleeds and my first video is of the La De Dah journal.

Thanks to everyone who has watched the video. It means so much to me that I have had over 200 views on it.

Thanks a bunch Gemma

La De Dah Haul

So I was looking around on the internet for a sort of book type scrapbook. I saw on YouTube smash books but when I tried to find them in the UK I couldn't I could only find them on Ebay but I saw these La De Dah journey books which is what I am looking for and it is a bit cheaper than the smash book itself. But there is one plus with this one is the fact you can add pages to them too. 

So there are three types of La De Dah's 

The Blue one which is Pretty.

The Pink one which is Journal.

The Orange one which is Creative.

Each one is £9.99 where as I have seen the smash books range from £15 to £22.

Here is the one I got... It is the blue one.

The pen is really cool it have a pen on one side and the other side is a glue stick which is the same as the Smash Book's Pen. So it's similar to the Smash Books these La De Dah's journals. I am loving the pages inside which are like the smash book pages too. 

Here is the pen as I got a spare one too. Only £1.99

There are a few extra things all these are £1.99.

72 Sticky Tags

30 Assorted Journaling Sheets

Plus some Refill Page Pack too which includes 2 photo album pages and 8 journal pages.

I know this is a La De Dah but found this one thing for £1 and thought it will look nice in this journal which mini notelets 

I got all these from The Range.
